"Now, I'm going to show you all the items that you'll need to arrange your own artificial flower arrangement. First and foremost and probably obviously, you're going to need some artificial flowers. I decided to pick a nice variety. As you can see here we have some beautiful artificial peonies, but I also decided to bring in some sort of grassy twigs and then also, this curly willow here. It's nice to have different elements just to keep it looking interesting and looking a bit more realistic. You're also going to need a container, in which to put the flowers. You're going to need this product here, it's called "oasis, or floral foam." You can get this at any floral store or any crafts store. This is going to go inside your container and it's going to be what is going to hold those flowers still. You're going to need a bit of moss, we've got two different kinds here. This is pretty much just to cover up all of your mistakes around the top and give it that finished designer look. You possibly might need some floral wire, You'll need wire cutters to clip these and to make them the shape and the size that you want. These can be pretty tough and you'll need those heavy duty wire cutters. We've also got greening pins and some floral tape. These are all the items that you're going to need to get to make your own artificial flower arrangement. "
